- | '''[[Wikipedia:Breakfast cereal|Breakfast cereal]]''' is a popular food among the [[Homestar Runner (body of work)|Homestar Runner]] [[characters]] and [[The Brothers Chaps]]. [[Toons]] and [[Strong Bad Email|Strong Bad emails]] often feature both real-life and invented cereal. In fact, if [[Mike Chapman|Mike]] has his way, we may one day see a Homestar Runner breakfast cereal{{ref|1}}. Perhaps the prominence of cereal in Mike and [[Matt Chapman|Matt]]'s work is due to their fond childhood memories of eating cereal while watching Saturday morning cartoons and their desire to recreate this lost cultural experience{{ref|2}}.
